Libby/Libby/Hodge wrote this ebook Financial Accounting, 9th edition, (PDF) based on their belief that the subject of financial accounting is inherently interesting but financial accounting books aren’t. They believe most financial accounting textbooks fail to demonstrate that accounting is an exciting field of study and one that is important to future careers in business. When writing this textbook they considered career relevance as their guide when selecting material and the need to engage the student as their guide to style pedagogy and design.

Hodge/Libby/Libby successfully implements a real-world single focus company approach in every chapter. Students and instructors have responded very favorably to the use of focus companies and real-world financial statements. The companies chosen are engaging and the decision-making focus shows the relevance of financial accounting regardless of whether or not the student has chosen to major in accounting. Hodge/Libby/Libby believes in the building-block approach to teaching transaction analysis. Most faculty agree that mastery of the accounting cycle is critical to success in financial accounting. And yet all other financial ebooks introduce and develop transaction analysis in one chapter bombarding a college student early in the course with an overload of new concepts and terms. The authors believe that most faculty take more time with the accounting cycle but other financial accounting textbooks don’t. By slowing down the introduction of transactions and giving accounting students time to practice and gain mastery this building-block approach leads to greater student success in their study of later topics in financial accounting such as adjusting entries.
